Forest Hills puts you close to what locals love about San Marcos — spring-fed water, a lively university scene, and an easy downtown. Tree-shaded streets frame mid-century homes and thoughtful remodels, and quick access to Hopkins Street and I‑35 keeps commutes simple, whether you’re bound for Austin or New Braunfels. Weekends often revolve around the river: paddle at Sewell Park or float to Rio Vista, then explore the Square’s local spots. Daily errands, from groceries to coffee, are minutes away.
Families are served by San Marcos CISD, with nearby campuses such as Crockett Elementary, Miller Middle School, and San Marcos High School. For higher education, Texas State University sits a short bike ride away, bringing lectures, arts, and Bobcat athletics to your doorstep.
Outdoor time is easy at the Purgatory Creek Natural Area, where limestone trails and Hill Country vistas reward quick after‑work hikes, and at City Park and Rio Vista Park along the river. Programs at the San Marcos Public Library add year-round learning and community connection. Regional services run through Hays County. Whether you’re buying or selling, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top real estate pro who knows Forest Hills inside and out.
